I've got to disagree with this one. This is the job of your source code
control system. I've seen applications which were commented in this manner
over a number of years and they are almost unreadable due to the sheer
volume of mod tags.
We take the approach to keep the stamp and story at the top, but remove the
tags after a while.....

Subject: RE: [U2] Good Programming Practice Question.........
Two items I have thought of.
1. In addition to putting a modification tag at the top of the code with
who/date/what, we also will assign a job number to the mod in addition to a
No for the mod. Such as mod 01. Then throughout the code where the changes
are made we put a tag such as *<<01>> start and *<<01>> end or, just a
single tag at the end of the line if only one or two lines being changed.
This makes the changes very easy to search for and spot should there be
problems in the new code.
